Summary
“Hi.” Despite some differences the voice was familiar and comfortable, it belonged to the person that used to know him truly: Micheal Wheeler.
He continued, “Will… congrats on the art gallery and like the paintings… Wow! I’m sorry about the rambling, and I’m sorry I haven't called or written or anything at all.”
Will didn’t know what to say, this felt like some type of dream, too vulnerable too close to home. In a moment he urged to feel understood, the only person that ever understood called after 7 years. Tears came in slowly as he spoke until he couldn't help but let out a small sob, that was enough for him he couldn't, not right now. He reached for the hang up button and slowly made his choice, regret already burning in his chest.
or ⊹ . ݁ ⟡ ݁ . ⊹ ₊ ݁.
Years after leaving Hawkins Mike and Will lost contact. Mike went through an entire crisis by the time he was in his 30s and determined that he is gay, leading to a messy divorce that distanced him from everyone. While Will just got given incredible opportunities as an artist and is struggling with feeling like he belongs and being understood. Both deal with feeling alone even if in their own ways, and that brings them together again for once.- Language:

Summary
The dripping of blood is all Will can hear as he lays down in the bathtub, the world spinning as the pills take effect.
All he has to do is wait. But the universe has other plans.
"Will?" Mike says from the other side of the door. "Can I come in?"
(Will Byers attempts suicide, but Mike manages to break the door down and save his life.)

Summary
Will’s not supposed to be hiding in corners, forcing a fake smile when Mike asks him if he’s okay. He’s not supposed to brush off insults like they're jokes. He’s not supposed to vanish for six hours during a school day, leaving Mike feeling like he’s slipping away all over again.
Whoever said that beating Vecna’s going to fix Hawkins’ problems, Will’s problems, Mike’s problems—they deserve an earful. They deserve to feel this weird, hollow dissatisfaction chewing away at their chests.
aka mike begs will to escape their small town after too many run-ins with homophobic small-town bs. he knows will's meant to find himself elsewhere, but he never expects to find an answer to the age-old question of his own fate. prom, gay bars, sleazy hotels, train stations, two lesbians and their not-so-legal marriage - they aren't the traditional sources of wisdom, but he can't complain.

Summary
Will's a true sorcerer. Right after the truth comes to light in the middle of a battlefield, Mike Wheeler finds himself more amazed and enamored with Will than he'd like to admit. However, they don't have time to celebrate the peace, because not much after that, Vecna comes back, determined to take what Will loves the most if he isn't by his side in this war. The Demos try to take Mike, but right before he enters the Upside Down, Will jumps and goes with him.
They're together now. In the Upside Down. But they're alone too, with a long journey ahead of them. Mike knows nothing can go wrong. After all, the only thing Will has accepted is that now he has powers, right?
or,
Mike and Will end up alone in the Upside Down, and Vecna targets both of them. (Complete rewrite of Stranger Things' ending).
